You are asking a question about two completely different things.
Cron job is based on the server, JavaScript (unless you are using NodeJS) is based on the client. Depending on whether this is a task that:
choose Cron (1) or JavaScript (2) respectively.
It is really like a comparison between apples and oranges. Unless you will tell us whether you want orange juice or apple pie, we won’t be able to help you more. Just remember that Cron is for more reliable server-side task execution, and JavaScript timeout is per-user (or rather per-client), less reliable execution.
